It’s National Breastfeeding Awareness Week and I wanted to contribute to it somehow by writing a post about my experience feeding my sons and what a positive outcome I have had. ‘Mummy…the baby wants booby’ has to be the most common statement that you will hear my 3 year old make at the moment.

I have recently just joined the small army of school Mum’s at our local school now that Beastie is attending his pre-school sessions.
